Combining the latest scientific research with practical advice, he offered a holistic approach to maintaining vitality and youthfulness well into one’s later years.

This book stands as a time capsule of the era’s fascination with extending not just lifespan but also “healthspan” – the years of active, vibrant living. Collectors and readers alike will appreciate Contreras’ forward-thinking perspectives on diet, exercise, stress management, and preventive care, which laid the groundwork for many modern wellness philosophies. A valuable addition to any library on healthy aging or 20th-century health trends.
